It is so much more economical to pay only 5 and to replace them every
two months. I used to get Dakota Tshirts from Mark's Work Wearhouse.
They were $16 each. They had a nice comfortable material and they lasted
for years without wearing or fading. I few months ago I had to replace
some that were more than 10 years old. The now ones have been sourced
elsewhere and within a couple months the material had already thinned
and the collars were all wonky.

Davers, if you're paying $5 for an ordinary pair of underwear and
that lasts only 2 months, you must have some serious butt
problems. Or serious washing machine problems. dude!

Contrary to popular belief in this ng, in my lifetime, Reagan was
the only president that made America great again.

Being in the draft of a large fan blowing on you while working up a
sweat is a great way to get sick. A fan won't lower the room
temperature, but it will lower skin temperature by evaporation and
that's how you'll get sick. And you're supposed to perspire from a
work out.

You might want to rethink your logic. If your body didn't want to lower your skin temperature by evaporation, it wouldn't perspire. Perspiration, along with vasodilation, is a cool adaption by humans to transfer heat out of their bodies through the skin to the air.

He still believes you can catch a cold by being cold. Just like his mom
told him 80 years ago.

We both do ironing, and I actually enjoy ironing.
In fact we recently bought a new iron and it works great.

I like to do all the prep early in the day. Only the beaten eggs
went into the fridge... the veggies were on the lowest heat for
several hours, and each added at a different time... first potatoes.
next peppers, next kielbasa. Last were the eggs, they take a half
hour. Cooking 16 eggs quickly they'll burn on the bottom before the
top cooks, and it's not possible to flip 16 eggs.

Assuming you're asking about the combo of potato, onion and spam:
- Microwave the potato until almost done then cube it
I often leave it in too long and it's fully cooked but
that's ok. Cubing it then, it will tend to fall apart
some but that's ok too.
- then put cubed potato, raw choppen onion, and
Spam right from the can into a frying pan with a
little oil and butter and brown it all stirring
once or twice but do let it sit cooking long too.
 
The applesauce on the side is a good compliment.
Also a juicy fried egg on top would be good.
 
For the microwaved "chunky mashed potato" only,
Just microwave it until done but in 2-3 steps.
Cook for a couple of minutes, let it sit for 4 minutes
then flip over and microwave again. If a large potato,
you might have to do that a 3rd time.
 
Then cross cut it using a knife and spoon, turn the bowl
sideways and cross cut again with some butter and S&P.
Do this turning and cutting a few times until texture
is how you want it and butter and S&P is mixed in.
 
Again, applesauce on the side and a juicy egg
on top is a good thing. :)

Good for you. I buy stuff that doesn't have to be ironed, and I never
go anywhere I have to dress up. It's all business casual where I work.

Gluten free will not scare people away from most products. Hopefully,
most people know that some products are naturally gluten, like most
fruits and vegetables, oats and corn. Sticking a label will attract
people who are trying to eat gluten free but don't realize that those
things were gluten free before labels were invented.
 
I see no reason to eat gluten free. I have tried breads and baked goods
that were gluten free. No thanks, I would rather eat the gluten.

We buy mostly flour tortillas, we like them for 'wraps', but we're not
concerned about gluten. However large food plants can be producing
many products utilizing many different ingredients... large dairies
often produce ice cream to save transportation costs so will have many
flavoring ingredients on the premises, like nuts and grains.

I know a little boy who has just been diagnosed as a coeliac. His
parents have had to replace any scratched non-stick pan as his
sensitivity is measured in ppm!!!

I freeze most of it as soon as it's completely cooled off . It takes
just a few minutes to thaw anything but a loaf , I use the toaster oven
set on about 175°F . The stove is like most new appliances , controlled
by a circuit board and solid state electronics . This is the second
time I've replaced it ...

Oh dear. How long have you had it? Could you not complain to the

Cooked for 75 minutes on top of a meat loaf educates ketchup.
Add worcesthershire to it first and it has a college degree.

The butcher that cut them for us was named Chuck so you can call them
Chuck steaks. We like the chicken rib eyes. You should see the eggs it
starts from.
